NOTE
In addition to these user instructions, a separate user manual is
provided describing the various ear-set solutions available for
your hearing aid: “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing aids”.
WARNING
This booklet and the manual “Ear-sets for Widex BTE hearing
aids” contain important information and instructions. Read
these booklets carefully before you start using the hearing aid.
NOTE
Your hearing aid, ear-set and accessories may not look exactly
as illustrated in this booklet. We also reserve the right to make
any changes considered necessary.
Intended use
The hearing aids are intended as air conduction amplifi-
cation devices to be used in everyday listening environ-
ments. The hearing aids may be provided with the Zen
program intended to provide a relaxing sound back-
ground (i.e. music/noise source) for adults who desire
to listen to such a background in quiet.
Indications for use
The devices are indicated for individuals with a range
of hearing loss severity from minimal (10 dB HL) to se-
vere-to-profound (100 dB HL) and all hearing loss con-
figurations.
6
They are to be programmed by licensed hearing care
professionals (audiologists, hearing aid specialists, oto-
laryngologists) who are trained in hearing (re)habilita-
tion as well as tinnitus management.
Description of device
Your hearing aid is used with an ear-set which consists
of a tube and an ear-tip or earmold. The hearing aid
uses a proprietary wireless technology, WidexLink, to
enable communication between the left and the right
hearing aids, as well as between the hearing aids and
the DEX accessories.
Your hearing aid may be provided with a listening
program called Zen. It makes musical tones (and some-
times a rushing noise) in the background. These sounds
are shaped according to your hearing loss.
WARNING
This hearing aid is capable of producing a sound pressure
level exceeding 132 dB SPL. There may be a risk of damaging
your residual hearing.
7
Acoustic indicators
The hearing aid may be set to produce a signal to
indicate the use of certain functions. The signal may
be a spoken message or tones. The signal can also be
deactivated.

The battery
We recommend zinc-air batteries. Use a size 312 bat-
tery for the hearing aid.
To obtain replacement batteries, please consult your
hearing care professional. It is important to take note
of the expiration date and the recommendations on the
battery pack regarding disposal of used batteries.
Inserting the battery
Before inserting a new battery into the
hearing aid, remember to remove the adhe-
sive tab. Once the tab has been removed,
wait 60 seconds before placing the battery
into the hearing aid.
CAUTION
Do not use batteries if there is a sticky residue from the tab or
other unwanted substance, as this can cause the hearing aid to
malfunction.
Use the nail grip to gently swing the
battery drawer open.
9
Place the battery in the drawer, so that the plus (+) sign
on the battery faces upward. You can use the battery
magnet provided to steer the battery into place.
If the battery drawer does not close easily, the battery
is incorrectly inserted.
When changing battery, it is a good idea to hold the
hearing aid over a table.
10
Low battery indication
An acoustic indicator will sound when the battery is
nearly exhausted, unless this function has been disa-
bled (see page 7). We recommend that you always
have a spare battery with you.
WARNING
Never leave an exhausted battery in the hearing aid. Exhausted
batteries may leak, damaging the hearing aid.
WARNING
Your hearing aid may stop functioning, for instance if the
battery is exhausted. You should be aware of this possibility, in
particular when you are in traffic or are otherwise dependent
on warning signals.
